Always a winner, especially in Melbourne. The Shanghai Dumpling Palace in China town does good, cheap food and lets you bring your own bottles of wine (dont know about gin though!) Or, if you want something a little fancier, try Movida or my fav The Press Club. Cookie bar goes does good Thai in a bar atmosphere. Excellent for hungry people who love to drink.<br /><br />Afterwards you could head to Fed Square or venture to the bar next to Shanghai Dumpling that has milk crates for seats. Cool and environmentally friendly. See some music at the Hi Fi Bar, or upstairs at Cookie Bar (excellent atmosphere also)<br /><br />phew. out of suggestions. walking along south bank is also a BIG winner at night.em.shttp://www.beingbold.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055537238073126977.post-32127683326681649002010-01-05T14:12:49.971+11:002010-01-05T14:12:49.971+11:00Sorry, I'm no help, I avoid the city like the ...Sorry, I'm no help, I avoid the city like the plague!
